The Honda Element-D (“D” for drifting) racecar shows what can happen when enthusiastic Honda associates raid the company parts bin. Built for the racing sport of drifting, the Honda Element-D racecar replaces the stock 4-cylinder/Real Time(TM) 4WD drivetrain with a custom-designed and longitudinally-mounted 3.2-liter Honda V6 and rear-wheel-drive. Producing 500-horsepower, the lightweight twin-turbocharged powerhouse is guaranteed to light up the rear tires and accelerate sideways at full opposite lock. Associates from Honda R&D Americas, Inc., in Ohio plan to campaign the Element-D in the 2007 Formula Drift Series.

Following the theme of “urban sport,” the Sport Concept CR-V is designed to increase the athletic feel of the already sophisticated CR-V. Highlights include aerodynamically styled front and rear bumpers along with a sports suspension package that lowers the Sport Concept CR-V for a customized presence. Custom 19-inch wheels are shod with Bridgestone Potenza tires (245/45R19). Interior modifications focus on the creation of a high-tech, performance-oriented driving environment with the addition of Civic Si synthetic suede fabric on the seating surfaces. Carbon fiber trim panels further accent the interior. Outside, the Sport Concept CR-V is painted in Agile Blue.

Arriving for the first time in the US, the MUGEN Civic Si Sedan will be available in US with a starting MSRP of under $30,000. This high-performance sedan features aerodynamic body kits and was revealed at the 2006 SEMA auto show. For more information, please read below. Enjoy the wallpapers!

Honda has released the price of the new upcoming Civic Si Sedan. The base price starts at $21,290. Available options include the upgraded high-performance summer tires. With navigation, the price will be increased to $23,040. Not too shabby for a high-performance midsize sedan.

More information and prices can be found below in the press release. 😉

Good evening. I’ve uploaded 81 high-resolution wallpapers of the 2007 Honda CR-V for the European market. From what I’ve seen from the images, the European models feature a different headlight cluster, with Xenons. Also, there is an optional sunroof which is much larger than the North American CR-V.

I think Honda has done a great job choosing its advertising firm. I think this is one of the most tear-dropping commercials I have ever seen. The scene begins with a man lip-syncing to “Impossible Dreams” while driving the evolution of Honda vehicles. Honda has done everything in the video, from motorcycles, to the new Honda Jet, they really did follow their dream. Great music, great scenery, this is one of the best I’ve ever seen. My hat goes off to whoever created the advertisement.

Good news for Civic lovers. Honda is planning to raise the production of the fuel-efficient Civics in North America. This includes the 4-cylinder model. Also, this plan will raise more interest for the fuel-efficient Civic.

However, does everyone really like the less powerful 4-cylinder? If it was me, I’d sure choose the V6 engine. But I can be a bit greedy sometimes. 😀
